Mark Osborne talks with a business owner about why they turned down acquisition offers. The owner chose purpose and legacy over a payday, prioritizing community and the values they built into the company.
That's really good. And I love that, like, you have your values on the wall behind you, but you don't have to look at them to know that's part of your business because it really comes through. And so often you talk to someone and they couldn't tell you what their values were. They'd have to go look them up. They'd have to go find the plaque on the wall where it's very clearly part of, part of the organization and the lifeblood there. You mentioned that, you know, sort of The community aspect of the business and the legacy of your father and the work that he'd done has been really important to you.

And I know that you've gotten offers on your business. But you've made a different choice, and for some really sort of meaningful reasons about what you want the future of your business to be.
